CAPO III
INTRO: A
[G]His father was a [D]Princeton lawyer,[A] a man of mea[Asus2]ns[A][Asus2]
[G]His mother summa cum [D]laude, fo[A]rmer beauty quee[Asus2]n[A][Asus2]
[G]In a house as big as a [D]hotel on Spencer [A]Boulevard[Asus2][A][Asus2]
That's where he [G]got his start[D][A][Asus2][A][Asus2]
18 years of summer camp and private schools
All American golden boy with a silver spoon
His future held all the promise of a president
Wonder where it went
CHORUS:
[Bm]It's hard to be the [G]crown prince [D] when it all hits [A]home[Asus2]
[Bm]You can't hide [G]behind the walls, [D]around the throne[A]
BREAK: G D A Asus2 A Asus2
The real world's not a playground, it's a danger zone
You find out who you really are when the pressure's on
He's the first one in his family to wind up second best
He couldn't pass the test
Now his share of the fortune's spent on savin' face
His family comes to visit on the holidays
Sometimes it's so quiet there he hears the flowers bloom
He's got a private room
CHORUS
BREAK
[G]Insanity's a [D]state of mind where [A]life begins[Asus2][A][Asus2]
Or [G]where it ends [D] it all dep[A]ends[Asus2][A][Asus2]
OUTRO (repeat out): G D A Asus2 A Asus2
CHORDS without capo:
G Bb
D F
A C
Asus2 Csus2
